Looking for a way to update your plastic refrigerator magnets? Why not gather your clothespins–or spend $1 on a package of 20 at the dollar store and revamp them! Tis’ the season for pink…and here’s how I did it:
What You’ll Need:
- Clothespins
- Cardstock
- Tacky Glue
- Ribbon
- Roll of Magnetic Stripping
1. Trace the clothespin on the wrong side of the cardstock and cut strip.
2. Glue strip to clothespin and add bow or any other embellishment you can think of. Stick magnet to the back of the clothespin.
This is Potter, my brother-in-law’s dog:
Me and my Valentine:
I cannot wait to use the new magnets to hang the kid’s Valentine Cards and then after this Saturday they will make great appointment card holders!

I was just talking to my girls about making these a few days ago. I were wondering if anyone would buy them off Etsy. lol Thanks for sharing…

We decorated clothespins to use as chip clips- threw some paint on there and then glued some alphabet pasta. Yours are much prettier though!
